When they start the game, they don't yell, Work ball. They say, Play ball.

This type of man who is devoted to the study of wisdom is always most unlucky in everything, and particularly when it comes to procreating children; I imagine this is because Nature wants to ensure that the evils of wisdom shall not spread further throughout mankind.

Desiderius Erasmus

An overflow of good converts to bad.

William Shakespeare

The gap between the committed and the indifferent is a Sahara whose faint trails, followed by the mind's eye only, fade out in sand.

Nadine Gordimer

So many reality shows are scripted and create this fake drama, and it's a bunch of bull. We wanted to do something real and something wholesome and something that's focused on positive family values.

Bill Rancic

Books are like a mirror. If an ass looks in, you can't expect an angel to look out.

Arthur Schopenhauer

Military school was great and especially great for leadership and then I spent two years in Vietnam.

Robert Kiyosaki

It is curious how there seems to be an instinctive disgust in Man for his nearest ancestors and relations. If only Darwin could conscientiously have traced man back to the Elephant or the Lion or the Antelope, how much ridicule and prejudice would have been spared to the doctrine of Evolution.

Havelock Ellis

I love when people underestimate me and then become pleasantly surprised.

Kim Kardashian

Man was lost if he went to a usurer, for the interest ran faster than a tiger upon him.

Pearl Buck

The lowest ebb is the turn of the tide.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Since Hiroshima and the Holocaust, science no longer holds its pristine place as the highest moral authority. Instead, that role is taken by human rights. It follows that any assault on Jewish life - on Jews or Judaism or the Jewish state - must be cast in the language of human rights.

Jonathan Sacks

So every creative act strives to attain an absolute status it longs to create a world of beauty to triumph over chaos and convert it to order.
